@killyourfm no choice now that MSFT is force feeding son of clippy copilot down everyone's throat

Is there a 'switching to Linux for idiots' edition? My belated took care of all these things and I'm utterly lost about tech in the most profound ways since he passed almost a year ago. Where does one start when one of their biggest skill blind spots needs an entire overhaul?
Yes, there is a variant of Linux called "ZorinOS" which is very similar to Windows. Same shortcuts, same or similar programs, very intuitive and easy to use. But if you are not comfortable with computer stuff it would probably be easier to ask someone who is to install it for you.

@killyourfm Did that 20 years ago ... one of my better choices ... 5/5 would recommend.

@killyourfm I jumped over to fedora when they announced the EOL date for win10. At first I setup dual-boot. I expected to be bouncing a lot. But it turns out I rarely needed it. A few months later I just wiped windows altogether. Never looked back. Not even for work. One work app had issue with normal Wine, but adding it as a non-steam game under steams Proton worked flawlessly.
Now I got most of my family switched over to the penguine, even grandparents. They all say only positive things too. 99% of what they do is web based anyway so no surprise there. But they love their laptops are "fast again". 🙂💪🐧

@killyourfm I installed Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE) 7 on both my wife's and my mother's PC.
Trained about 1 hour with both, no problems and only minor questions since then.Difficulty: Both play games that only run with Windows. Wine and Lutris solved that.
